Sch-Wild Country of Mexico [Spanish]

Looking beyond tourist haunts, photojournalist explores inner beauties of Mexico's largely unexplored regions which contain some of the most dramatic landscapes in the world. Wonderful color photographs and Spanish/English essays. -Pioneer Press

John Annerino's odyssey through Mexico is recounted in THE WILD COUNTRY OF MEXICO, a photo book with extensive text in English and Spanish. Annerino skips the cities and concentrates on lesser-known areas. The scenery, of course, is a knockout, but Annerino's photos of the people are the ones you will remember. -Union-Tribune

Viajamos a troves de seis regiones distintas de Mexico: las remotas selvas de Chiapas; las ruins maya de Quintana Roo; la Sierra Volcanica Transversal, una meseta hobitada que es la tercera mas alto del mundo; la Sierra Madre Occidental, el hogar legendario Canon de Cobre; la rica bioregion de Baja California, y el Desierto Sonorense, uno de los grandes desiertos del Nuevo Mundo. Aqui esta una evococion brillante de la gente y de los lugares en las areas de Mexico que son poco conocidos y rara vez visitodas. -La Casa del Libro

This magnificent book has 144 pages (8 1/2 x 11), 78 color plates and one color map. Photojournalist Annerino is the author of many books, including HIGH RISK PHOTOGRAPHY, HIKING THE GRAND CANYON, ADVENTURING IN ARIZONA, and the award-winning CANYONS OF THE SOUTHWEST. The author tranports us from the usual conception of Mexico - from the sad border towns selling cheap liquor, the dusty unpaved streets and mothers carrying suckling infants. Even so, it is the real Mexico but it wears many masks. It is a land of many contradictions: poverty and beauty; rain forests and deserts; volcanoes and silver, sandy beaches. It boasts the largest desert, the only jungle, the highest cascade, the most storied mountains, white beaches and deep chasms. Space does not permit descriptions of the prose and pictorial delights. Buy the book and browse through it and odds are that some time you will hike, bike or drive in this glorious wild country of Mexico. -Wenoca
